hey Noggy !!!!!


I know you put your bike up for sale on here ,,yeh,, that's ok.....




butttt .....






did you ask for any advice ? :lol :lol :lol :lol ,, can't remember :D




Well.....no.....not exactly.........i did invite discussion though & theres been plenty of that.......will it change my mind if someone offers me the 3k right now........i reckon id take the money........but that may change after i get hold of a c spanner......if i get it a bit more comfortable then ill see it out to the end of summer & trade it in next year.

Noggy, I'm slightly confused as to why you're selling a bike because you think the preload is too hard?
Have you asked Nitron about what spring rate is on there already?

No mate i cant see any codes....if they're up by the top of the shock then it is within the depths of the bike & i cant get a good enough view up there.......& i don't really think it will be as simple as the preload.......but i hope that it is...i gotta have a little hope for £15 worth of c spanner....& i sent nitron an email to see what help they can offer or advice on that non budging rebound knob.....i basically did allot of miles over a few days and just thought nahhhh......instead of getting more into the bike i was getting further disgruntled by it......& every tank of fuel spent analysing & wondering & stressing was another £20 down the drain but without the enjoyment........so i thought foc it I'm selling it......i dont owe it anything....it is a machine for my enjoyment & i'm  not enjoying it.........luckily yous foccers have put forward some ideas so i haven't bothered putting it up for sale anywhere else and there isn't much interest anyway so far so ill take it a step at a time for now but I'm[size=78%] not prepared to start forking out loads o dosh on it.[/size]


Fingers crossed. :)
